The Pros and Cons of FaceLube

I wasn’t expecting to discover a three-step men’s facial cleanser and anti-aging formula designed to look like automotive oil in the Kempt mailbox. And I certainly wasn’t expecting it to be made from caviar.

But when duty calls, I answer.

Long story short, I’ve been using FaceLube® Finest Germany [sic] Engineering and Men’s Anti-Aging Skin Care Technology for a Man’s Man® for weeks now—and as you might expect, some pros and cons have been identified...

Pro: The product works. In spite of my skepticism, after using FaceLube® for one month, my skin felt softer and healthier. Several people actually asked if I’d recently gotten a facial.Con: I could have recently gotten five facials with the $245 I spent on FaceLube®.

Pro:FaceLube® FAQ Section—“Straight Talk About Men” “Q: I think skin care and face creams are ‘girly’ and for ladies. A: Yes, we agree.”Con: “The FaceLube® Story” as told by founder and CEO Candace Chen. “There’s more to me than just an above-average automotive IQ. And when word got out that I was going into the beauty business, my male friends and colleagues started asking me for skin care advice. I guess because you could say I’m like one of the boys. At first I hesitated to give masculine skin care advice because, at the time, I knew very little about men’s face care.”
